Kate Middleton’s brother, James Middleton, steers clear of feuds and controversies surrounding members of the British royal family.

His personal relations don’t appear to be affected by his sister’s relations with other royals.

If media reports are anything to go by, Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor and his family have fallen out of favor with his brother-in-law, Prince William.

However, James Middleton was prominent among those to publicly engage with Princess Eugenie’s two separate social media posts announcing the birth of her third child and sharing her name.

Eagle-eyed fans noticed that James Middleton liked Eugenie’s Instagram posts to show support for the cousin of Prince William in a time of crisis that has haunted her parents since the Jeffrey Epstein scandal rocked the world.

Princess Eugenie, a niece of King Charles, announced last week the birth of her third ​child with husband Jack Brooksbank.

Eugenie, the younger daughter of ‌the monarch's disgraced brother Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor and his ex-wife Sarah Ferguson, already has two sons, August, who was born in February ​2021, and Ernest, born in June 2023.
